Zorin OS Review - The BEST Linux Alternative for Windows?

A Review of a Linux distro called Zorin OS 17.2 released with a new MODERN GNOME Desktop and great new features. This might be the best alternative to Windows for users and they even offer a new Windows 11 Layout with the PRO edition.

I'm new to Linux. Have being using Zorin lite in my old laptop for 3 months now.
I don't know why I choose Zorin over Mint or MX, I just liked the looks and the vibes.
I'm very happy with it, and I'm glad I left MS Windows 🎉

I've been using Zorin OS for over 3 years now. Never looked back. It does everything Windows does just faster and smoother with zero crashes. Features are way beyond any Windows version ever made too. Switched from AutoCAD, Solidworks, Office and Illustrator to FreeCAD, Open Office and Inkscape and besides the normal learning curve when beginning any new software, I felt everything was more than enough for a SME Engineering Workshop and Offset Printing House to be viable for commercial purposes with the advantages of being license free.

I'm pretty new to Linux. Tried several distros but I'm confused. Your Linux Cheatsheet has everything I need to jumpstart my Linux education. Thank you and keep up the good work.

As of now, after several distro-hopping, I wanna stick myself with Zorin for a while to re-educate myself. After this, I shall explore Arch and Gentoo

I've been using Zorin on one machine or another for years. IMO after using Linux for over 20 years Zorin is the best Linux distro out there currently.

What alternatives to Windows are you using?

[ZaberfangX]

Depend on a new user needs I push them to mint or zorin os as options. There are other but thats abit little more for a new user can deal with.

Personally i think Zorin OS is great user friendly OS for laptops and chromebooks

[KazukiyanOfficial]

quick question is installing virtualbox with windows inside zorin os linux works?

[hds]

I just installed Zorin OS 17 on my PC coz I can't afford to purchase windows and its softwares. and Yes, unexpectedly, I love ZORIN OS soo much morethan Window.
Now I amalso installed ZORIN OS LITE 15 on my old Chromebook 🥰

It's so addicting.. felt like I am using MAC OS

I installed zorin os 12.2 ony imac 2011 with 4gb of ram and i must say it runs excellent, better than High Sierra mac os which isnt supported anymore

Tried top list distros and stuck with Zorin since a few months ago as it gets the job done. Last one I used was Pop'OS and I was quite happy with it for a while, but it crashed (Ok, I crashed it...😅, that's how we learn anyways, right?).

[KTJohnsonkidThunder]

I'm debating on getting it, but will it run Windows apps and programs too?

[le_travie]

Considering coming over to Zorin from Pop!OS. As of late it has been freezing consistently while I'm working for no reason. Among other issues like the App store crashing when I am trying to install updates

i have been a windows user since 1.0 and now in my old age i am seeing the slow disintegration of what was a good OS into just a platform for MS to try to leverage money out of the users aka office 365 and many other what are now being called "apps" not programs anymore.
time to learn how to use Linux instead esp Zorin as my first delve into the Linux OS
struggling to understand the terminal and how to install the programs and apps needed, i have to keep looking up the commands as they are not easily lodged in my failing memory
i am using Zorin as a duel boot on a gaming laptop but not on my main PC just yet until i figure out how to ensure i dont loose my 30 years of data on the main pc

Great video. I bought a laptop from someone and he have dual boot windows 11 and zorin. I want to update the OS can I update without paying money or if I update the OS they will upgrade by default?

[timnowak]

Personally, for people who have older hardware I suggest Linux Lite, Peppermint OS-Classic, Linux Mint XFCE, and with newer hardware Linux Mint Cinnamon, Zorin OS. There are also a lot of other distributions that are underrated, and worth attention. For example Pardus Os, SparkyLinux, Siduction Linux, Openmandriva etc.These distributions are friendly, and quite easy to use.

I username mint for old computer for long but im now switching to zorin os.... I love linux because it brings old obsolete computer to life.

[Mugambo]

I looks promising for me and similar to windows, so switching to it and using this will be easy for regular users ...👍

It's good and not only for beginners, recently go new laptop, HP Victus 15 and installed zori 17.2. had one problem. Screen brightness adjustment did not work. Also tested it on Ubuntu, Fedora, Suse tumbleweed, Pop os, Nabora all same problem. On Ubuntu also got totally dark 😂. Work around was install extension to overide original sliders. Will daily drive zorin and see how it goes. P.s nividia works, just ppl don't forget install nividia zorin version

[ТэжонМонголЦуглаан]

I wanna know if this OS is compatible with VMware. Is it possible to install it on VMware?
